General

In the ‘General’ menu:

• select the desired form pack and project (same as Company ID name), from the drop down list.

  • if no form packs are appearing please contact customer support as your user settings may need to be expanded

• enter the first name, last name of the subject/recipient of the document

• select country code and enter mobile number WITHOUT initial 0

  • Please ensure mobile and email contact are correct here, as this is not easily fixed later

Sign By:

The sign by field will autopopulate with recipient details, as entered above/.

Use the + button on the right to add signers as needed.

Sequence number and approval numbers:

It is important to complete the sequence number (chronological) and approval number ( 1 / 5) fields for additional users correctly. Otherwise, the document will skip desired approvers.

The signature position value entered in the pop up add signer box (above) becomes the approval number in the ‘Sign by’ grid (below, right).

• External signers and production approvers have different signature fields.

Adding Agents to Approval Groups

In the ‘Sign By' field area, agents and crew member must be added in accordance to the production’s agent approval group format (selected under the ‘Approval Group’ header)

• For example;

  • Agent (no signature) - signature position 5, signing order 1

  • Agent( with signature required) : signature position (app) 5, signing order 2

    • The recipient crew member’s sequence numbers must then also be adjusted:

      • Crew member with agent: signature position (app) 1, signing order (seq) 3

Approval group

• Once the ‘Sign By’ details are completed, expand the Approval group field.

• Select appropriate approval group.

  • User connection to approval groups is managed by TPH admin. Please contact TPH if you can't see the relevant approval group in the drop down field

  •  

Once an approval group is selected, a grid displaying the Name (internal signers) or ‘External Signer’ label and their sequence number (signing order) and signature position numbers (Approval number) appears.

Confirm that the signature and approver details submitted in the ‘Sign By’ details field align with the preset rankings listed for the desired approver group.

Adding agents to approval groups

• Select ‘agent approval group’ (or similar) in the drop down box.

• Check that the signature position here and approval number in the ‘Sign by’ field match for each external user

• check that the Sequence number here and signing order number in the ‘Sign by’ field box match for each external user

Documents

Expand each document attached to the form pack and complete any empty fields.

NOTE: If you click save without completing all required fields, digital forms will alert you to the missing fields.

• If the name, mobile or email address are amended, please expand each document title to check that the correct email has auto populated

• At this stage the creator only sees the fields that need to populated to draft the contract. This drafting page doesn’t make visible fields that the crew member will later complete
